The LEGO Movie: Everything is Awesome

By: Terra Clarke Olsen

I cannot say enough good things about this movie. It surpassed all my expectations and was far better than I ever thought possible. The visuals, the sounds, the story-it all merged together creating the perfect movie. Seriously, it is awesomely perfect. The theme song of the movie is freakishly catchy (be warned, you will have it in your head for a least a week plus), yet surprisingly not annoying.

The characters are well developed and hilarious (one word, Batman).

I seriously can’t find a single thing wrong with this movie. In an effort to not create any spoilers, I am not going to say anything about the plot. But I do have to emphasize that the movie embodies everything I love about LEGOs. Playing with LEGOs boosts children’s imagination and creativity, as well as emphasizing the ability and importance of being  a freethinker. For this reason alone, everyone should see this movie. (Unless you hate fun. Then do not see this movie. Fun hater.)
